Book Description
Did the Mirpuri Community Reach Britain Because of the Mangla Dam?
This book explores one of the most significant yet often misunderstood chapters in the history of migration from Mirpur, Azad Jammu & Kashmir, to the United Kingdom. While the construction of the Mangla Dam in the 1960s displaced tens of thousands of people and accelerated migration, this work examines whether the British Mirpuri diaspora can be explained by the dam alone.
Drawing on historical records, published research, government documents, and contemporary analysis, the book traces the social, economic, and political factors that shaped migration before, during, and after the construction of the dam. It also discusses the role of British immigration policies, chain migration, family reunification, and the long-term impact of displacement on generations of Mirpuris.
Rather than relying on popular narratives, the book presents a balanced, evidence-based examination of an important historical question. It is intended for readers interested in migration studies, South Asian history, the Kashmir region, diaspora communities, and the relationship between development projects and human displacement.
